Subsistence of tribals of Mayurbhanj predominantly depends on the gigantic Similipal Biosphere Reserve (SBR) as they had been benefited from this forest resource from the Princely State period up to 1949, after which extraction from forest became treated as exploitation. To curb this and maintain a sustainable atmosphere towards a balanced forest resource, many laws have enacted to promote sustainable development. But these enactments threaten the subsistence rights of the local tribals as they are forest dependants. It is determined after analysing different legislations that on the same platform sustainable development and tribal subsistence in the district cannot possible.
